The Global Business Academy is designed to provide a comprehensive and up-to-date overview of global business.

You’ll also examine institutions important in international business including the World Bank, the International Monetary Fund, and the World Trade Organization.

    Georgetown's Global Business Academy introduces you to the ins and outs of the business world. Combining investment challenges and group presentations with dynamic faculty lectures and case studies, our program prepares you with the practical skills and critical thinking abilities that will benefit you in your future academic and professional endeavors

    It was amazing to be surrounded by such high caliber students and staff who were all encouraging and fabulous to work with. I took away many positive things from my week as a Summer Hoya.

    The program offers so much–from the off-site visits to the daily lectures and the on campus activities. The lectures were interesting, meeting new people was great and the off-site visits were interactive and intriguing.
